How are you guys? Good morning. Some growing excitement with you guys at 27 and 25. We were talking

What has changed from the pitching? I know, like, the numbers say you're striking out more guys,

walking less. What have you seen from the pitching staff overall? Yeah, they've been great.

Simon and the whole crew, obviously, the whole player group has been great.
